General / SFML binaries and the latest code::blocks Mingw
« on: February 08, 2016, 09:16:06 pm »
Hi,
I am a self taught programmer using the code::blocks ide and the mingw compiler on a window7 machine.
After following the instructions on installing sfml in the tutorial I can't get the demo to compile.
Apparently the sfml binaries for the latest compiler that came with the code::blocks download are incompatible.
It was suggested I cmake my own binaries but really don't have the know how to follow the instructions which say do x,y and z but not how to do x,y and z.
Will SFML eventually make binaries available or make availbale an automatic project icon for code::blocks?
I have no trouble with console programs as all I do is click the console icon to set it up.
Also I have no trouble with more advanced languages which don't require a convoluted complicated set of actions to get a library working.
Any suggestions are welcome.
